Tuesday 28th July Pinarroo SA to Narenderra NSW
A fairly quick drive today of 595kms along the Mallee and Sturt Highways. The day started well with the biggest plate of scrambled eggs and bacon that has ever been placed before me, it was great. The drive itself took us through the wheat producing lands and also the vast vineyards that are spread about this part of Australia. We saw two “spectaculars” today. The first was just out of Balranald when we saw two small flocks of Emus grazing by the roadside and the second one was further down the highway when we came across two massive flocks of Galahs. They were gathered on railings around a granary, there must have thousands of them. We arrived in Narenderra just before 4pm and found the most amazing town full of lovely old Aussie buildings. A session with the camera tomorrow morning is called for. Tomorrow we head off for Gunnedah NSW, our last night on the road.
ODO reading from Clarenza = 6836.7 kms
